It has been a long and hard season for us (Manchester United), losing out on only 1pt at the end. Looking back, it could be down to many things such as the loss of goal scoring options in Ronaldo and Tevez, to the defeat away at Burnley and Villa, to the goalless draw at Blackburn to the home defeat to Chelsea to the over reliance of Rooney and of course the fumbling count Dracula Berbatov...
Next season, we will get #19...
But in the end, we just weren't good enough although I felt the likes of Rooney, Valencia, Nani and Gibson have been outstanding this season. Heck, I even tip my hat off to old man Giggsy. Then again, when the champions scored more team goals, more individual goals, and beat all its closest rivals home and away, I can't really argue with the outcome... Next season then..
Well, at least we didn't blow 1/4 billion euros on players and yet didn't yield any silverware! That honour of biggest failure of the season goes to Real Madrid. Seriously, that amount can finance a small country weh! But thanks to Messi-ah and co., Barcelona lifted their title for a second successive time under Pep. Their revelation of the season has to be youngster Pedro Rodriguez. The 19 yr old (I think) has managed 12 league goals as a winger and that is the same amount Berbatov scored all season as well, as a striker... Been telling Yong all season to 'watch this kid' and so far he has yet to disappoint me.
Simply the best...
Though of course much of their success can be attributed to Messi and Xavi. Messi has scored 47 goals in total this season whilst Xavi as almost the same amount of assists I'm guessing! Heck, he manage to play 100+ passes in a game against Arsenal! Lets face it, no club in the world plays better football than them, not even United! Though Inter did play brilliant defensive, anti-football to lock them out of the Champions League...
Right, so as the season draws to a close with only the Champions League final to play, there is bound to be post season blues and plenty of empty weekend nights for now. At least until the World Cup kicks off on 11th of June!! Have you decided who to support? I sure have...
Oh yes! Supporting La Furia Roja in South Africa..
On another note, yes some other things have come to an end, though I do not wish to elaborate it over here as I deem it rather inappropriate...
